Abstract:
A drive system for a pump includes a first housing defining an internal pressure chamber, a working fluid disposed within and charging the internal pressure chamber, a second housing disposed within the first housing, a solenoid disposed within the second housing, a reciprocating member slidably disposed within the solenoid, a pull housing integral with a first end of the reciprocating member, the pull housing defining a pull chamber, a pull disposed within the pull chamber, and a fluid displacement member coupled to the pull.
Abstract:
A fluid sprayer includes a battery supported by a stand of the sprayer and that is configured to provide electric power to a motor of the sprayer to cause pumping by a pump of the sprayer. The battery is mounted vertically below the sprayer body. The battery is bracketed by vertical portions of the stand.
Abstract:
A battery powered fluid sprayer includes a shelter that the battery is mounted in to provide power to the electric components of the sprayer. The shelter protects the battery from falling fluid droplets. The shelter extends above the battery and projects outward laterally and longitudinally to protect the battery. The battery can move vertically downward to dismount from the fluid sprayer.
Abstract:
A double displacement pump includes an inlet manifold, an outlet manifold, a first fluid cavity between the inlet manifold and the outlet manifold, a second fluid cavity between the inlet manifold and the outlet manifold, and a drive system that includes a housing defining an internal pressure chamber, a piston disposed within the internal pressure chamber and having a first and second pull chambers and a central slot for receiving a drive, a first pull with a free end slidably secured within the first pull chamber and a second pull with a free end slidably secured within the second pull chamber, and a first fluid displacement member coupled to the first pull and a second fluid displacement member coupled to the second pull.

Abstract:
A battery powered fluid sprayer includes a battery mounted to a vertically extending wall of the fluid sprayer. The battery powers an electric motor to power a pump to pump fluid to a spray gun for spraying. The battery is disposed within a battery chamber enclosed by a door. The battery is suspended above a base of the battery chamber to isolate battery from any fluid that may enter the chamber.
Abstract:
A method of displacing fluid includes pulling a pump displacement member through a suction stroke with a pull, the pull configured to transmit only tensile forces to the fluid displacement member. A working fluid disposed in an internal pressure chamber drive the fluid displacement member through a pumping stroke. The pull is prevented from transmitting any compressive forces to the fluid displacement member, such that the pull does not drive the fluid displacement member through the pumping stroke.
